New York City's magnificent Eldridge Street Synagogue was built in 1887 in response to the great wave of Jewish immigrants who fled persecution in eastern Europe. This book discusses themes, people, and trends at various moments in the synagogue's history, particularly during its heyday from 1887 until the 1930s.
